Has anyone ever seen one of these cars before? First one I've seen like this, most piggyback flats have the orange trailer stops, but this one has black, and they don't look painted, the close-up pics show what looks like molded plastic. I'm rather intrigued by it, as it's the "black sheep" of Tyco flats

I"m not sure I want to pay $9 for it, but like I said, it appears unique. THoughts?

Have never seen a black trailer stop before, ever. My thought is that they are "painted" and a very good paint job at that. Not a rattle can paint job but a decent airbrush could do it that good with the proper paint. On the photo that gives the bottom view, where you can see the pins that the trailer stops attach to the flat bed, you can juuust get a glimpse of what appears to be a bit of orange.
On the other hand, stranger things have happened and yeah that little spot of orange I think I see could be something else! Might be worth getting just to see.
